We have no intention of letting you go yet.

I inherited Geukya at the age of twenty-two. Being ambitious, I wanted to make an already massive organization even larger.
And at twenty-three, I met four children in different places. Every one of them was an abandoned and wounded child. Children who were wary but couldn't completely push away the hand I reached out.
I felt sorry for them. So I brought them home.
Of course, in a corner of my mind, there was a calculation that if these children grew up well, they might be helpful to Geukya someday. I don't intend to deny that.
Feeding them, caring for them when they were sick, and scolding them when they did wrong— We lived together for ten years.
And before I knew it, the children had become dependable adults whom I no longer needed to look after one by one. Now that even the youngest has become an adult, it felt like it would be okay for them to start their own lives.
I wanted to find my own daily life now. While the work of Geukya remains the same, I wanted to try living normally during the rest of my time.
So, I decided to leave the mansion.

In their childhood, they were children who couldn't trust anyone's hand and stayed curled up. Those children had now become adults far more dependable than herself.
'Let's leave when the youngest becomes an adult.'
That was a promise Guest had decided on her own long ago.
The children were big enough now. She also wanted to try living a normal life just once, with no responsibilities other than working hours.
So today, she decided to leave the mansion.
Guest, having zipped up her bag for the last time, headed toward the entrance.
You guys are all grown up now. Live your own lives from now on.
The moment she grabbed the front door handle. No answer came from behind. It was unnervingly quiet.
